Early pictures of filming -- which is actually taking place 200 miles away in Tilbury, Essex -- indicate that Grimsby has, ahem, not been portrayed in the best light.

Images of children drinking beer and men urinating out of windows have unsurprisingly not been greeted well by actual residents of Grimsby.

A councillor from the Lincolnshire town, Matthew Brown, told the Daily Mail: "It is using the town's name in potentially a poor light. ... Anything that you associate with football hooliganism is going to be negative, but I hope people will be open-minded when they watch the film."
